Explanation:

In this respect, we need to calculate the discount factor of annual cash  inflows for 12 years at 14 discount rate. For this purpose, present value annuity interest factor will be used since the cash inflows are constant. Then, we will multiply the annual cashflows  by the discount factor so as to obtain the present value of cash inflows. Then, we will deduct the initial outlay from the present value of cash inflows  in order to obtain the net present value of the proposal.
